Captain Riccardo knows Lake Como and its species!  We talked habitat, techniques, fish behaviors and shared stroies.  Great lil rig outfitted with Livescope made for a fun day of fishing for pikeperch.  Bonus tour of the first basin of Como and its incredible villas.  I’ll be back to fish with Riccardo!
